Still Have Questions?

What Redmond, Oregon events are happening this weekend?

There’s almost always something on in Redmond. Events fill the calendar nearly every weekend ranging from lively seasonal festivals to cozy community gatherings downtown.

The energy here is welcoming and never feels overwhelming, which is exactly how a getaway should feel.

Does Redmond, Oregon have a rodeo?

It sure does, and it’s easily one of the best in the region. The Deschutes County Fair & Rodeo turns the Expo Center into Central Oregon’s biggest party every summer, with bull riding, barrel racing, fair food, carnival rides, and live concerts. It’s pure high desert Western spirit, the kind of event you plan a trip around. Come for the rodeo, then stick around for some other outdoor activities.

What is the biggest annual festival in Redmond, Oregon?

That title definitely goes to the Deschutes County Fair & Rodeo, which happens late every summer at the Expo Center. Picture national concert acts, a championship rodeo, carnival rides, and classic fair food — all packed into a few unforgettable days. It’s the highlight of the year, but Redmond’s calendar stays full with seasonal Central Oregon festivals and downtown celebrations too. Build your visit around it and fill the rest of your time with other things to do.

Is there live music in Redmond, Oregon?

Absolutely. You’ll catch live music at Redmond’s breweries, vineyards, downtown events, and outdoor stages, especially once the patios open for summer. For a bigger show, major touring acts headline the main stages at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center. Check the calendar before you come, line up dinner nearby, and turn a casual night into a great one.

What can families do at events in Redmond, Oregon?

Plenty, because local events are intentionally designed for all ages. From the Deschutes County Fair & Rodeo to seasonal festivals and weekend markets, you’ll find carnival rides, hands-on activities, and live entertainment in a laid-back, kid-friendly setting. Pair an event with the parks or explore other outdoor activities and you’ve got a full family day. It’s the kind of wholesome, small-town fun that’s getting hard to find. Bringing the kids?
